Chapter 57: The Order of the Phoenix
School started and even though James tried to play it off like everything was just peachy keen his close friends knew that it wasn't. Even when Sirius asked him about it he refused to say anything about it. After a week had passed Lily began to pester Faith to talk to him
"Why should I?" Faith asked taken aback.
"Your the only one who knows what its like to lose a parent..."Lily said trailing off. Faith eyes went wide.
"No.No.No and No. I can't talk to James about that." Faith said. Lily sighed. Why did James and Faith have to be so difficult? Why couldn't they just talk about it?
"I think it would do him good." Lily said walking off and muttering under her breath
"and you."
Later in that week while they were taking a particularly stressful Potions test Filch came in and said
"Dumbeldore needs to see Potter, Black, Lupin, Pettigrew, Snape, Sloom, Evans, and Deluna." Filch said.The eight all stole glances at one another as if searching for an answer. The eight silently got up and shuffled out of the room under the stares of thier peers.
"Nasty bit of trouble you all are in....tells Filch what it is that you did." Filch said grinning as they followed him to Dumbeldores office.
"Nothing." James and Sirius said at the same time.
"I bet it was something you two did....maybe you three." Filch said pointing to James and Sirius and then Faith.
"Oh yes...we all painted the astronomy tower bright red.You've caught us now. Damn." Faith said sarcastically and snapping her fingers as if she'd been caught in some brilliant scheme.
Filch glared at her as he said the password (Chocolate Frogs) and muttered something about troublesome teenagers as he left. The eight climbed the stairs in silence. Serverus in front followed by Peter. Sirius who was closely followed by Faith who was clutching the back of his shirt to keep from falling. Lily, James, Remus and Sarah all followed behind them.
Serverus pushed open the door and found eight armchairs all in a line that had a slight curve to it. Serverus picked a black armchair, seated next to him in the dark green chair was Sirius who had rushed over to make sure that Serverus and Faith were far apart. Next to Sirius in a dark red chair was Faith, next to her in a light blue chair was Sarah. Followed by Remus in a similar chair then James and Lily had matching forest green chairs.
Dumbeldore leaned far over his desk and sighed.
"I don't suppose any of you know why you're here?" Dumbeldore said.
"No...not really." Sarah tucking her feet underneath her.
"Well I can assure you its not for painting the astronomy tower bright red." Dumbeldore said smiling at Faith who smirked back while kicking off her trainers (or shoes).
"I would like to speak once everyone gets here." Dumbeldore said. Within the next few minutes there were two popping noises. The first person to apparate in the room was Arthur Weasley. He smiled at Faith and she gave him a slight wave as he took a chair that Dumbeldore produced with a wave of his wand. The second person was someone that only Remus and Faith recognized. Limping across the room was a younger much less scarred Mad Eye Moody. His eye swiveled around and locked on Remus and then Faith. Instead of sitting he stood behind them all.
"Now that were all here I can begin." Dumbeldore said adusting his half moon spectacles.
"Well the ministry is going to announce tomorrow that there is a man out there named Voldemort trying to rid the world of muggle borns. The ministry however does not see eye to eye with me. I believe that Voldemort is a big threat while the ministry thinks that just in another year he will be gone. The ministry isn't going to do anything and just let this voldemort thing blow over. I propose a different idea. I propose we try and put a stop to Voldemort and his deatheaters. We would be finding out who is a deatheater and keeping tabs on them. We would also be working with others to try and stop any deatheater activity." Dumbeldore said calmly and sternly. The others just stared at him.
"What would we call this group?" Sarah said timidly.
"That...I have not figured out yet." Dumbeldore said slighlty put out.
"Well wouldn't that be an important thing? Faith asked.
"Yes..Yes, I suppose it would." Dumbeldore said.
"Any ideas for names?" James asked. Everyone thought for a minute and offered
"Dumbeldore's Army?" Everyone exchanged glances.
"Its not really my army." Dumbeldore said smiling.
"Yeah and not really an army more of a group or an order." Faith said leaning forward and looking at Lily.
"Order...Order of..." Lily said and everyone thought.
"Fawkes." Sarah said looking at Fawkes the pheonix.
"Order of the Fawkes?" Sirius asked raising an eyebrow.
"Not really clicking in my mind." Sirius said.
"Order...Order of the phoenix?" James offered hopefully. Everyone thought for a minute and decided this was a perfect name. They then deicded to meet every other Saturday night in Dumbeldore's office.
In the middle of the night Peter Pettigrew sat in the common room staring at the fire. A noise behind him startled him. Turning around he saw Sarah. Only this Sarah had blood red eyes and they held a glazed look.
Sarah bent down on one knee and said
"I want to join the Dark Lord."
